Motivation of effective clarification:

• In the treatment of surface water, the effectiveness of the first clarification process is decisive for a cost- and resource-efficient water treatment plant.
• Effective clarification ensures both a high degree of operational safety in downstream treatment steps and hygienically perfect drinking water quality.
• The clarification shall also be cost-effective with regards to the consumption of chemicals and the required construction volume.

The ECoFlocX process:

• A multiple chamber coagulation and contact sludge flocculation stage is ideal for effective destabilization and uniform floc formation
• Each coagulation/flocculation stage is perfectly designed with respect
• to the specific physico-chemical process and hydraulic requirements
• The uniform floc formation is followed by an integrated floc separation
• with lamella sedimentation and settled sludge thickening
• The lamella system is the only available inclined plate separation system,
• that ensures a hydraulically controlled overflow over the entire settling surface
• Wide range of applications in municipal and industrial water treatment,
• e.g. clarification, softening, precipitation, primary and tertiary wastewater treatment

See our References with ECoFlocX

• Particularly suitable for efficient high suspended solids removal in order to get high-level and stable water quality
• Very compact design due to short residence times in coagulation/flocculation
• and high specific settling area (>10 m³/m²)
• Minimized chemical consumption for coagulant/precipitant,
• lime milk and flocculant.
• Adjustable weirs at lamella overflow ensure uniform up-flow and
• steady floc separation without ballast additives.
• Each single plate is easily removable without interruption in operation
• Suspended solids and turbidity removal of 3-4 logarithm scales resulting
• in a clarified water quality of less than 1 NTU turbidity.
• In case of downstream sand filtration: extended filtration cycles and less backwash water losses.
• In case of downstream ultra filtration: less fouling and higher filtrate yield.
